The Sonic Red, White & Blue Slush Float is a new summertime refreshment from the QSR brand that will offer consumers a way to keep cool in the heat and celebrate the Fourth of July. The drink is achieved with a mix of Blue Raspberry Slush that has been topped with a layer of ice cream before being finished with a Fruit Strawberry Slush layer. These ingredients work together to create a tasty flavor profile, while also making it a patriotic option for patrons to pick up.
The Sonic Red, White & Blue Slush Float will be available at participating locations nationwide for a limited time only between June 29 and August 2, 2020.
